Majority of nervous Americans would like to return to 2009 health care system

Implications of the 2,100-page health care reform legislation that went on to become the Affordable Care Act are beginning to emerge. Americans appear to be getting a little nervous about it all, says a new poll from Fox News.

The majority want to return to a previous era. The poll found that 56 percent of U.S. voters say it would be ‘better’ if the U.S. went back to the health care system that was in place in 2009. Of course there’s a partisan divide: 85 percent of Republicans, 74 percent of conservatives, 30 percent of Democrats and 27 percent of liberals agree with that.
